Yaaaarrrrrr, Me Thinks A Re-Post Be In Order!

*** I thought this post was maybe worthy of a 're-post'. It's been one of my most popular posts and since I'm in the middle of a ton of crafting/painting/repurposing, etc... I thought I'd just do a little re-do. If you've seen this post already then sorry for the repeat. If not then grab a mug of yer finest ale and enjoy me little pirate project from last year!***

When I was in Pennsylvania last October Mike had a great idea and turned a huge closet into a fun fort for the boys. A pirate ship to be precise. I was super excited about this new fort and told Mike I would be happy to paint it and make it a little more "Pirate-y".

Well, I did finally finish painting it and it only took me 5 months! But I must say, "Yaaaaarrrrrrrrrr, she looks grrrreat!"

And the boys love it!

First we started with a huge closet that we didn't know what to do with...
Then this happened...
Yes, those are toys and other junk under the fort. I'm not THAT great! :)


We still have to put the trap door in so the boys can use this for sleepovers. Plus I need to take 10 minutes and clean up the paint that I dripped on the deck of the 'ship'. I was just in a hurry to get this post up so you didn't all think I was giving up after the blog war!
